Two of the most popular songs of 2013, Robin Thicke, et al.'s "Blurred Lines" and "Let It Go" from Disney's Frozen, share a common theme:
I know you want it / But you're a good girl
Be the good girl you always have to be / ... / Let it go, let it go / That perfect girl is gone!
What does it say about society when songs decrying the social obligation to be a "good girl" keep becoming popular? Exactly what are those onerous social obligations?
